Also worth mentioning:

Arc Interactive also worked on the new SAA app which was also nominated for the Best App Developed by an Agency award. The world class airline needed an app that would reflect its reputation for high quality service and essentially, make the customer’s journey easier- which is just what was delivered in the end.

To the future:

Arc interactive aims to grow their footprint by not just being on-trend with digital innovation, but to have a hand in setting the tone for the future. The agency’s managing partner, Luke Goller comments, “We’re grateful for the recognition from New Generation as well as our clients for partnering with us on these projects. This is only the beginning and so we’re excited to grow our current relationships further, build new ones and create work that contributes positively to the creative economy.”
